Note 1: Physical Nodes (pNodes) will earn the same as Virtual Nodes, but if Incognito has provided you with the Stake for your pNode, you will be splitting the earnings with them by 35/65. You can always choose to Stake it yourself, and then receive your full earnings every week.Note 2: USDT amount is calculated each week using: https://incscan.io/pdex/marketsNote 3: Current known longest record for a vNode not earning is 29 days. You can earn badges for this by beating it or being in the running . See: https://incognito.org/badgesNote 4: I do not work for or represent Incognito. These are my personal statistics and they do not guarantee similar earnings on your own Nodes. Although, comparing stats among other members, we have found most or all of our average earnings to be similar over a matter of weeks or months.Note 5: You can find other Incognito statistics here - Incognito Growth Statistics - Weekly Update 5/23/20

@Mike_Despo
Hi, what is your setup, are you running one big server or many servers also see some going 0 for a week or two I guess this is common? My thoughts are like Is it better to stake for the 57% through the app or run a vnode? Currently I’m running two vnodes.

These are all run through Jservers. Yes it’s possible for one single node to earn 0 multiple weeks in a row. It’s the larger overall picture that is important, like say 6 months to a year. It may not earn for 3 weeks, and then you’ll have one REALLY good week. It currently balances out to:

Mike_Despo:

8 week averages per Node:APY = 123%Weekly Earnings = 41 PRV (~$20)

Based on those stats, it’s financially much more lucrative to have a vNode at 123% than to be in the staking pool for 57%. But the benefit of the staking pool is that you can pull out your money much faster.

Oh yes that’s true about the Jserver fee.
Regardless, the conclusion is the same which answers the question asked: Based on the stats, it’s financially much more lucrative to have a vNode than to be in the staking pool.

If you got a vNode with DigitalOcean or GoogleCloud, your fees will be much higher than Jservers and then I’d recommend taking a good look at what your net APY becomes.@palumboe1

Agreed that there are more nodes now, but only 100 node increase over the past month which isnt enough to create this big of a difference in earnings averages . If it was an increase of 1000 nodes, then yes definitely.
